John

I was a secondary school teacher in Winchester for 31 years and loved every minute of it! I have recently finished working for myself as a consultant in the City of London. I am now taking on occasional supply work throughout Hampshire
I regard myself as a successful teacher who has an excellent relationship with all students - of both sexes - who I have taught.
I have worked extensively on developing a range of teaching and learning styles and skills and am confident that I can engage with children and young people easily and instantly.
I am a passionate guitar player and performer(!) enjoying a wide range of music. I can talk for England about football, rugby and cricket.

I hold a current DBS check (formerly CRB)

Availability: On request and by appointment

Willing to travel: 10 miles

Experience: I had a teaching career of 31 years: teaching History, Sociology and English. I managed Personal Social and Health Education for 12 years and was a Head of Year for 15 years. I have given extensive one-to-one and intervention support throughout my career and as part of my responsibilities.
I can offer tutorial support for GCSE English, History and Sociology and for general English improvement skills. I can also offer support and guidance for revision skills and technique, examination preparation, time management, basic literacy and numeracy improvement.
In addition I can offer support in Drugs Awareness, Sexual Health Education and risk management for parents and children or both. I can also work with anyone who needs help with Citizenship skills: the delivery of Citizenship was another of my responsibilities.
I have run Parent Support groups, given presentations on Drugs Awareness and Sexual Health Education and have materials published on Drugs Awareness teaching.
